It's a struck-in piece of metal. Probably a little bit of zinc lost from another error coin.

I don't know for sure, John. I'm just going by what I was told on a different forum. Sorry for the bad advise, if I'm wrong about it.

Ok..I know its an older post.
Do you guy's think the coin has any value?I decided to put it on ebay,but have no idea for how much I could start the bid.

And Mikediamond....would that be a RETAINED STRUCK THROUGH?.
Thank you very much

Depending if it added zinc to the coin, or if the back half was removed. The weight would probably tell which way.

Coop....it weighs exactly 2.50 gr.It's a small area,it probably wouldn't change the weight to much.

That is the correct weight for a normal coin.
